Summary
The 2020 Valhermoso Springs murders left seven people dead in Morgan County, Alabama, when Frederic Rogers and John Michael Legg opened fire during a drug dispute that escalated into a mass homicide. The investigation revealed burned bodies, over 1,000 crime scene photographs, and a confession that detailed the premeditated execution-style killings carried out by members of a group calling themselves the Seven Deadly Sins.
This is the story of what happens when two guys watch too much Sons of Anarchy and decide stolen guns and a Facebook post are worth killing seven people over. Rogers and Legg weren't hardened criminals with rap sheets. They were kids playing dress-up in an outlaw fantasy they cobbled together from a TV show. When someone posted pictures of their drugs and guns online, they decided the only logical response was to invite everyone over for dinner and shoot them all. Because apparently, in their version of reality, that's how you handle embarrassment. We're talking about a crime so brutal that seasoned investigators called it the most disturbing scene in county history, and it all started because two guys couldn't tell the difference between cable television and real life.
